PFLP is nominally a Communist group, but it is wholly tied in to the “Palestinian” jihad. Would San Francisco State University ever host a foe of jihad violence and Sharia oppression? Come on, man!
“San Francisco State University to Host Notorious Palestinian Terrorist Leila Khaled for ‘Resistance’ Event,” Algemeiner, September 3, 2020:
A notorious Palestinian terrorist is scheduled to speak at San Francisco State University (SFSU) later this month in what is being billed as an academic seminar program.
Leila Khaled — a leading member of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) who took part in the hijacking of a Tel Aviv-bound commercial flight in 1969 — will appear at an event titled, “Whose Narratives? Gender, Justice and Resistance: A Conversation with Leila Khaled,” on Sept. 23.
The discussion is being organized by the SFSU’s Department of Arab and Muslim Ethnicities and Diasporas Studies headed by Prof. Rabab Abdulhadi — an uncompromising anti-Zionist who has been accused of fostering hate speech and harassment against pro-Israel students on campus.
Among those appearing alongside Khaled will be Ronnie Kasrils — a Jewish supporter of the South African Communist Party (SACP) who promotes the boycott campaign against Israel and frequently peddles anti-Zionist conspiracy theories online.
The 76-year-old Khaled — who lives in the Jordanian capital Amman — remains affiliated with the PFLP, which is classified as a terrorist organization by the United States and European Union.
The PFLP executed suicide bombings and other attacks during the Second Intifada, resulting in more than 100 deaths. Members of the PFLP also claimed responsibility for a 2014 massacre at a Jerusalem synagogue.
Khaled compared Israelis to Nazis in a 2017 speech at the European Parliament.
“You can’t compare the actions of the Nazis to the actions of the Zionists in Gaza,” she claimed, later adding, “The Nazis were judged in Nuremberg but not a single one of the Zionists has yet been brought to justice.”…

I”ll finish her sentence for her: “… because they are not Nazis.”

I take it Nancy Pelosi will be provided a front-row seat.
Mack Truslow says
Who, she is ugly. I remeber her when she was into airplane hijacking and she was really gorgeous.
Mischief Maker in the Land says
She might think the same about you: you don’t know.

There’s a certain expression shared by criminals and terrorists who’ve been caught or exposed — and it makes their faces repellent to normal people, no matter how handsome they might otherwise be judged.
This is actually backed up by research: average law-abiding people can pick criminals out of a random photo lineup about 85% of the time. While this was attributed to associated facial types — I’d guess it was more that they were accurately reading the typical “screw you” expression.
And I’d expect the inverse is also true — that criminals and terrorists can pick out a soft target by their expressions, perhaps of “I love everybody” or submission..

The only resistance is their refusal to build a lasting peace that will help their children.
No one believes in the dream of an earthly Islamic paradise. ISIS was the expression of the Islamic paradise on earth, but it failed catastrophically and the rest of the world will not tolerate another caliphate.
Erdogan is hoping he can revive the Ottoman Empire, but the rest of the Muslim world hates Turkey for what it did to them in the past.
Islam is now seen as a catastrophic failure as a political system.

Quote: Khaled compared Israelis to Nazis in a 2017 speech at the European Parliament.
What rot! Rather than reducing the population of Pallies, that population has grown exponentially under Israeli rule!
The supposed, alleged genocide against the Pallies has had the OPPOSITE EFFECT of a normal genocide … namely, Israel has helped to produce a POPULATION EXPLOSION among the Pallies.
Some genocide!
Reziac says
That’s what I keep sayin’ about all these ‘oppressed peoples’ and their burgeoning populations — if this is genocide, we’re doin’ it wrong.
Kepha says
How is it that that woman is allowed to have a visa to enter the USA? It seems to me she was on watch lists back in the day when I manned the consular window.
Gork says
Eh. She should speak. We should listen. These are not impressionable young kids. They are students, hopefully with minds of their own. Had she tried something like that in front of my college age children, they would have been polite, and then they would have disassembled ever bloody lie she uttered.
Star Dust says
They need to learn that all people do not want to be forced in to another belief that they are against… They won’t let Jews and Christians live in peace… People should never have to submit to things or pay to live…
Larry says
She should be arrested and turned over to Israel for prosecution.
OLD GUY says
It is amazing how people like her get these speaking jobs at liberal schools. Her only claim to fame is murder of innocent people she has decided to hate. What possibly can she say that will be of a benefit to our young people. She will glorify her ideology and justify her terrorism not take responsibility for the deaths she has caused in the name of false prophet.

……………
Just disgusting. But SF State would not have a speaker who *opposes* Jihad terror.

What’s wrong with America?

The problem is not America overall, but the hard left.
